    oook so i want a big snake.. but i don't want one that gets over 10ft.. 10ft is fine but just not over..

    but see i want one that will grow fast..

    i was thinking about a jungle carpet.. ive heard they get anywhere from 6-8 ft long.. but im not sure how fast they grow.. i know burms grow really fast.. but i'm afraid i wont have the room for a snake that gets 15ft+ .. if i did i would soooooooooooooo get a retic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and a burm.. i want both :taz:

    dang.. someday that will happen!

    look into super dwarf retics or Coastal Carpets, a good SD breeder will be able to show/tell you about parents and lengths and you hould be able to pick something that will stay under 10'

    posts like this really wont get you a good answer becuase big snakes arent exactly something you can "well i kinda want a big snake, but not bigger than 10ft!" and no one wanted to contribute the the possibility of another big snake media nightmare.

    look into big boas or carpets if your worried about more than 10ft... nothing in here is guarenteed to stay anywhere near that size, and were having a big eough problem with publicity/media and big snakes and we dont need another HELP IDK WHAT TO DO WITH MY 15ft SNAKE!!


    im sure most people will tell you this, unless your commited to potentiall 15+ feet, your in the wrong section of the forum

    It sounds like your trying to jump into having a large snake too fast. Remember that your not just going to have something that is "cool" but also something that can potentially kill you. Do not forget that a snake that gets 10 feet will require two people to handle, because they can be just as deadly as a 20 foot long snake.

    Maybe look into female boas? They get pretty big but are very manageable. There is a chance that they can get to 12 feet but from what ive seen that is very rare.
